And what I thought then and I still feel now is that it's because this room was a room full of misfits, outcasts, loners, dreamers, mumblers, delinquents, dropouts. |
I'd have to say that my experience at the Annual General Meeting of our student society was marked by mumblers of the most extraordinary kind. |
And I'm not insisting the whisperers, mumblers, droners and mic-dummies of this world be barred from reading their own poetry out loud. |
The BBC blunder came just a few months after director general Tony Hall declared war on mumblers. |
Having said that though, I bet those mumblers don't have young children to entertain over the final stretch of a long fortnight. |
